Description: This is the 1957 first edition of THE PRICE OF DIAMONDS by DAN JACOBSON. Before Blood Diamonds, there was IDB. Classic 1957 (reprinted in 1968 and again in 2016) novel … Hardback, around 130mm by 198mm tall, is bound in its publisher's original maroon cloth. Tilting to back-strip protect ting the spine all original gilt. Retains its publisher’s unclipped dust jacket, as first issued more than 60 years ago. First edition published by Weidenfeld, London, in 1957. Free from prior ownership inscriptions and permanent markings to the text. Although interior condition is overall good, because this original letterpress book is old, it may display trivial signs of use and age — such as the usual discolouration to old paper — consistent with a printed object of this vintage. All 156 pp main text are complete and otherwise correct. ¶ Dan Jacobson (1929-2014) ¶ Your book, anywhere within the UK, is sent to you FREE.
